Info from the web:
The Bargloyer Steinkiste is located north of Bargloy, in the rural community of Wildeshausen in Lower Saxony. The complex of large stones, which is unusual for north-west Germany but otherwise widespread, was originally covered by a mound of earth. However, it is not a megalithic tomb.
The 2.0 × 1.5 meter stone box in the Wildeshauser Geest dates to the end of the Neolithic or the beginning of the Bronze Age, around 1800 - 1600 BC. In contrast to the preceding megalithic tombs, stone chests were originally intended for individual burials.
